Mark's revised adventure

Mark, if you have a smartphone, you may want to set up a Blogger account and get a Blogger client app for your phone. I have found that it makes it much easier for me to do frequent journaling, since I don't have to wait until I'm able to sit down at a keyboard.

Blog #3 for those who are interested:

Hi Mary,

I don't have a smartphone I'm afraid, so I will just get by with the erratic wi-fi internet connections, that I encounter on the way.

Mark

And isn't that a loaded question. Was hoping you'd make it over this way on your trip, but perhaps next time, we can have a long conversation about waza. I'm glad to read that you're having a great time out there.

Hi Mark,

I was hoping that I was going to make it over that way too. However, I'd forgotten quite how large this country is, and quite how slow, old VW's go!

The question may be loaded and in my mind is still hanging. I am in no rush to answer it.

maybe next time, by then I should know the answer.

regards,

Mark

C'mere and say that....

Like I said...ya never got off the left coast!!! How can you call that your American adventure? Sheesh...

Phi is right, of course. Next time start on the east coast.

You may well be right Phi, but I definitely don't want to get in the way of that particular argument!

True Mary, I should have referred to it as my West Coast adventure (the adventure part was accurate though). I still want to do the same on the right (?) side of the country...watch this space.
